So – what’s on the menu?

Well, it’s important to make sure that your guests will eat everything on your menu, so do check whether there are any specific dietary restrictions, etc.

That said – it’s your party and you can make it low carb! Who needs bread when you have all these beautiful foods:

Make sure you have enough textures and tastes on your starter platter – this should feel like a fun tasting, savouring each new taste and different combinations.

For the Grana Padano crisps, simply finely grate some Grana Padano cheese, arrange into circles onto a baking sheet and bake at 180C for 10 minutes until the cheese is bubbling.
Let it cool and remove from the sheet.

For the cranberry relish, place 1 cup of dries cranberries in a small saucepan with 1 cup of Rooibos tea.
Add the zest and juice of 1 orange and let it simmer until most of the tea has reduced.

For the roasted peppers just pop a few peppers under the grill and roast until they’re totally charred.
Place in a bowl and cover with clingwrap.
Let it cool down, then remove the tough outer skin, stem and seeds.
Cut into strips and drizzle with olive oil.
